By Jeremy Horwitz ● Wednesday, October 12, 2005

Now available is a brand new mid-week podcast from iLounge’s Editor-in-Chief Jeremy Horwitz, bringing first details on the brand new fifth-generation (video) iPod, and many other major announcements made at Apple’s One More Thing event in San Jose, California. If you want first details and hands-on impressions of the new iPod, you’ll want to download this podcast. We apologize for the audio quality - we recorded live in a crowded setting.

Brilliant as always Jeremy. A great overview of the new iPod, very detailed and informative.

It’s always a pleasure to listen to your podcasts - you have a great voice for radio, cool, calm, and friendly.

Many thanks

Hello,

I just listened to your podcast on the Ipod 5g and you did not mention anything about the screen as to if the fonts are bigger or if Apple added any driving safty features like having it read the screen data to you through the audio output. That feature would also make this an accessible player for the blind.

Can’t download the new Christmas buyer guide as this is about only page legible with new version of Safari. Text is otherwise a garbled mess.

My ipod 5G got freeze the first time I plug in and it got freeze the next day. Is it supposed to be like or just mine? The second time it freeze I cannot fix it. I try switch and pressed the two buttons at the same time. It still doesn’t work. Plus, the battery indicator show the in red but 5 minutes ago is still showing it has at least half of the better. Can anyone tell me what’s wrong? I try to exchange, but the apple’s sale told me they need to check it. I need to bring it back to apple store in the morning to have a specialist to check it for me! Thanks!
